Nice, I have yet to see an X1. I seriously wanted one for a while, but the price put me off!
Thanks.
Our New Zealanders location list is now complete.

Err... no? Better have a look then.
I have my eye on a new toy - a roof mounted HSDPA antenna to improve my reception at home.

The 84 pound model.

Did anyone see Target last night on TV3?
They tested 8GB MP3 players. Their choices were:
- iPod Nano
- iPod Touch
- Sony Walkman NWZA828B with DRBT21G BT stereo headphones included.
- Samsung something or other (P2 or K3 I think)
They got the band ELEMENO P to test the devices and it quickly became apparent that everyone has different tastes and strong views over what features matter. Funny that isn't it
Anyway, I thought the preferences and comments related also to mobile phones and found it interesting that:
- Those who use email and internet a lot loved the iPod Touch.
- Those to whom sound quality matters loved the
and the Sony plug-in headphones.
- BT features turned everyone off, either because of poor reception or they felt like a techno-geek.
- Everyone thought the Samsung was solid and reliable but boring.
Final Ranking:
1) iPod Nano
2) iPod Touch
3) Sony Walkman
4) Samsung
The show will be available on TV3 Video on Demand
here, it's not up yet but should be soon.

Haha. Not that I have anything against Apple as a brand or anything, but I laugh at any 'test' of MP3 players where iPod products come out on top. Surely an MP3 player test should include sound as its most important factor, and everyone knows that iPod's sound, while decent enough, can't match Walkmans (and surely Elemeno P would be into sound?!). iPods generally win only on style and in the Touch/iPhone's case, usability and extra features. The click wheel on other iPods is
hugely annoying.
Even so, it sounds interesting and I might check it out later.

Why don't TV3 like Samsung? Why do you say that?

Cause almost every product check, sony or panasonic come first (Or maybe its just because their products are so good)
